What is Beetroot?
Beetroot microgreens are the young, tender shoots of the beetroot plant. With their vibrant red and purple hues, these microgreens are as visually appealing as they are nutritious. They contain a potent mix of vitamins, antioxidants, and nitrates, making them an excellent choice for enhancing nutrition.
Beetroot is one of the 16 potent microgreens featured in our products. Each serving, just 1.5g, provides a highly concentrated source of nutrients, making it an easy and convenient way to meet your daily nutritional needs. Our microgreens also support good gut health with gut-friendly bacteria and fibre while helping to bolster immunity, improve energy levels, and reduce oxidative stress and inflammation.
How are Beetroot Microgreens Grown?
Beetroot microgreens are grown in trays filled with compost. After about 10-12 days of growth under light and moisture conditions, they’re ready to harvest.
Health Benefits of Beetroot Microgreens
- High in nitrates: The body converts nitrates to nitrous oxide, which widens blood vessels and can reduce blood pressure.
- Rich in antioxidants: Betalains in beetroot microgreens help reduce oxidative stress and support overall wellness.
- Boosts energy: The nitrates enhance oxygen delivery to muscles, making them a great addition to pre-workout nutrition.
